Those guys look like the type that would be slobbering at republican rallies in 2008. That they show up for Obama is telling.

the color of their skin? their age? their facial hair?

Come on up to my neck of the woods sometime and you'll see that the vast majority of democratic voters look just like these folks.

These are iconic. They show a vast difference between the candidates, Obama connecting with people.

What does Mitt have to offer in this domain? Nada. I don't think I've seen a single Mitt pic with kids in it where he is engaging with them.

on edit: I will continue to R& every Obama with kids/babies pic thread.

Obama team should put together an ad showing just the President interacting with children. It would be a very positive message even without any voice over.

when they get older, but there will be photos. I'm glad to see everyone taking pictures. They'll be treasured photos for everyone.
